Graphic Novel
An intimately charged novel of desire and disaster from the author of American Woman and A Person of Interest
Regina Gottlieb had been warned about Professor Nicholas Brodeur long before arriving as a graduate student at his prestigious university high on a pastoral hill. Heβs said to lie in the dark in his office while undergraduate women read couplets to him. Heβs condemned on the walls of the womenβs restroom, and enjoys films by Roman Polanski. But no one has warned Regina about his exceptional physical beautyβor his charismatic, volatile wife.
My Education is the story of Reginaβs mistakes, which only begin in the bedroom, and endβif they doβfifteen years in the future and thousands of miles away. By turns erotic and completely catastrophic, Reginaβs misadventures demonstrate what can happen when the chasm between desire and duty is too wide to bridge.
